I have a copy of the California Health & Safety Code 17920.3 that states that a dwelling has to have hot and cold running water. Also, the California Civil Code 1941.1 that states that a dwelling can be untenanable if it does not have hot or cold running water. Legally, can she be sued for not repairing a major issue such as water? And, will a lawyer take the case? As tenants, we cannot fix it because it would take much more than 1 months rent to replace the well. It cannot be repaired. A new well has to be dug as the ground has moved.
